its quite depressing but it applies to much of corporate structure and incentives.

how much more performance can you squeeze from an individual that:

i) is not intrinsic to who they are (hence visible when you hire them - if its not the right profile just don't hire them)

ii) is not tied to your own bloated structure, toxic culture and messed up processes and hence none of their fault

is that 10%, 20% extra performance? is that sufficient to satisfy the "markets"? when its your vision and business model is what is really the problem.
